I have been very patient with this company. I have purchased a treadmill that has been having difficulties since the purchase. I have replaced multiple parts sometimes the same part, I’ve had one of their technicians come out, and my machine still remains in pieces. I have not been able to use my machine for a very long time. I just spoke with the company again today 10/6/22 and was told the same exact thing that I was told two months ago, that they would expedite the part, it would not be available until five days after October 10 and at that time a technician would call me to Apply the part. When I explained that this was already told to me two months ago and I never received the part nor a call from a technician, they proceeded to say that was all that they could do it this time. As it stands this very expensive machine is in pieces in my gym and has not been able to be used.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because:the tech, Nick, came out yesterday to install the controller unfortunately the treadmill continued to do the same thing this morning after the installation. Now apparently it's the belt that is the problem. Another month of waiting for a part I would presume......I am forwarding the video that was taken this morning to Isabel Peterson for her to forward directly as she did before.

I'm sorry to hear that your Pulse Tech Percussion Therapy Gun no longer holds a charge. I have reviewed your account. These massage guns have a 90 day warranty. Do you have a receipt showing a purchase within the last 90 days? Without a receipt, we cannot offer a replacement. We also do not carry replacement parts for the massage guns.
I apologize for any inconvenience this causes.Please let me know if you have any further questions.

I bought a Nordictrack x22i treadmill from this company on 9/9/2022. I paid $3019.73 for the treadmill and an additional $299 for white glove delivery, meaning they'd bring it to the room of my choice and assemble the product. The treadmill was delivered and assembled on 9/15/2022. I used the product for the first time on 9/16/2022 and that was the last time I was able to use it. The treadmill belt will not move unless you interact with the app/software, which is by design. Unfortunately, the screen froze repeatedly and the app, when it would open, often froze or completely crashed and disappeared from the screen. Keep in mind, the screen is absolutely necessary to get the belt to move. After several resets and unplugging, them plugging back in, I was able to get into the app and it wasn't freezing, but now the belt would not move. The incline would adjust and the screen would accumulate miles, calories, time, etc, but the belt wouldn't move. I would argue that is this machine's only job so I believe I received a defective treadmill. I have 3 kids, 3 pets, and 2 jobs. When I cut out an hour to work out I just want to work out. I don't want to troubleshoot bad tech, I don't want to sit on hold for 20+ minutes with ifit (several times and I have screen shots of call times). I was able to initiate a return and get a partial refund, but after numerous e-mails and phone calls where this company documented my issues, they still refused to refund me $454.20 claiming they do not refund for the white glove delivery, and they charge a restocking fee for returns. If this had been a working unit and I returned it because it didn't fit my preferences, I would understand. This company is charging me $454.20 because they sent me a defective unit, wasted hours of my time, and ruined my workouts/motivation for 2 weeks while I was trying to deal with this. This was a brand new, $3,000 treadmill that did not work. I should not be responsible for any charges. I want my $454.20 back.Business Response

We spoke with our Billing and ****************** about this return. They have confirmed they have refunded you all we will refund as white glove assembly cannot be refunded since the machine was delivered and assembled, therefore the services were rendered.

Order number ******** I received this product September 22 and since then I have had to hard reset the treadmill each time I use it. I called and spent hours just to talk with an agent or I had to wait online to message someone. Now that I am returning the product the company is charging $480 for previous shipping cost and return. I am confused how do I pay for the return of a faulty product? This is seems to be the case with so many people when I read the reviews. Nordictrack should not be able to sell faulty products and not guarantee a free return if the consumer calls repeatedly about the product. This is unethical and not good business.Business Response

I ordered a 2450 commercial Nordictrack treadmill directly from Nordictrack on May 30, 2022. Their website claimed that shipment would be approximately 7 to 10 days from the date the order was processed. On July 14, 2022, after not receiving my treadmill within the stated time, I called and requested a refund, which they finally reluctantly provided and processed.
On September 7, 2022, I received a request from Nordictrack to pay in full for the treadmill that they claimed I received on July 20th. I spoke with their customer service that day and explained I never received a shipment. Their representative stated I had to provide a police report in order to clear my account. I did not think it was right to file a police report for something I never received. But due to their threats that my account would be sent to collections, I filed the police report and sent it to them.
Nordictrack then claimed that I still owed the amount and presented a shipment order from their carrier that they claimed was proof of delivery to me. I explained that the form wasn't signed by me or anyone matching that name in my house. The shipment order also stated that the screen was shattered. I pointed out that I have never requested a screen replacement, so I obviously never received the shipment. It makes no sense that I would accept broken equipment. I asked that my account be cleared since I had complied by filing the police report at their request.
Nordictrack is still demanding full payment for something I never received. Their email clearly states that I need to pay to avoid my account being sent to collections. I feel like they are trying to scare me into paying and will use the police report to also claim coverage through their insurance. Why else would they be adamant I file a report if they never intended to clear my account after receiving the report? They never explained the discrepancies I pointed out with the shipment order that was allegedly proof of delivery.Business Response

Hello,
Thank you for reaching back out.
Unfortunately because NSD shows it was delivered and it shows in our system it was delivered is why the police report is not sufficient.
Thank you.

Complaint: ********
I am rejecting this response because: the fact that NSD reported that to you does not mean it is correct. I pointed out why it's not correct and supported it with an approved police report. You have not explained the signature or the damaged treadmill in that delivery statement.We are obviously are at an impasse on agreeing to the facts. I am not going to pay in full for a treadmill I never received. What do you propose to solve this?

I purchased a S22i spin bike and after a while the tension adjustment quit working. I-fit sent part and I paid $169 for a tech to fix the bike. He spent 5 minutes and said it was a different part that would be needed. I obtained the new part but now there is not a technician to service my bike.I contacted I-fit, and was told, it's up to me to find someone to service my bike, because they didn't have anyone to service my zip code!I believe that they should do everything possible to help me restore my $2000 bike to full functionality!Business Response

Purchased a treadmill in June 2021. Had the mother board replaced twice (after delays, multiple phone calls, errors) and now we have been waiting for four months (and counting) for the running platform to be replaced. When we initially called to ask for a tech to find out what the problem was, my husband was told a tech can only come out if we can prove we have a problem (with photos). They sent him to a ******* video with instructions on how to take the treadmill apart to access the running platform. After taking it apart, the platform was cracked. He took photos, sent them to iFit and another board was ordered. The fist replacement board was damaged and when the second one arrived, they told us they couldnt repair the treadmill because my husband had taken apart too much. He wouldnt have taken it apart at all if they hadnt told him to. We now havent been able to use it since early June 2022. We keep calling/emailing to try to resolve the issue, but no one is getting back to us. The treadmill was expensive and weve barely been able to use it because of all the problems.Business Response

We are so sorry about the inconveniences and the frustrations that you have experienced with the machine and machine issues. We completely understand where you are coming from on this matter.
In looking into your account, we can see you have been in contact with our member services team. While reviewing your service order, we confirmed that as your machine was fully disassembled, it will need to be reassembled before the technician can come out unless you would like to pay for assembly which is $169. This technician order was only requested to replace the walking platform. You do not need to fully disassemble the machine to replace this part which is why there would be a fee associated as it is causing more work for the technician.

I purchased a treadmill from iFit in February 2020. On July 9, 2022, it stopped working abruptly. I reached out to **************** immediately on July 9, 2022 (case #********). After emailing several other times and getting no response at all, I filed a complaint with you on August 2, 2022 (#********). Coincidentally, they finally responded shortly after that (which was around a month later on August 12, 2022). Since then, they coordinated to have a repair person come and look at it, but he determined that the console needed to be replaced completely. Unfortunately, the consoles are on backorder. On September 12, 2022, I inquired again about the length of time I'll have to wait to get the replacement console, and if there's any compensation for the fact that I've been without a treadmill for nearly 3 months now, despite having purchased an extended warranty. No response yet again. They are exasperating to deal with and I'm really irritated that I have to keep spending time writing things like this just to get them to respond to me. I'm moving to a more remote part of ******** soon and I dread to think how long it will take to get a repair person out there, if I even ever receive a replacement console. Frankly at this point I would prefer to just have a replacement treadmill, which probably wouldn't cost much more than the console/other parts/repair person service charges.Business Response

I purchased a treadmill (commercial **** 2021 model) from Nordictrack via customer on September 7, 2022. It was delivered today September 28, 2022. I paid $199 for white glove service, so it was set up by the delivery company. The machine is making a loud noise, the board is vibrating and if I raise the incline the machine gets even louder. I called Nordictrack right away to complain. The customer service rep asked me to look at the motor ( I was on a virtual call with customer service). According to the customer service representative the motor is damaged. He said he would send a part and have a technician come out to repair, I requested to have the treadmill returned. In order to discourage me he told me that if I returned it I would have to bring the 400 lb. machine downstairs myself. Im very unhappy with this company and would like the BBB to assist me in getting a full refund and have Nordictrack pick up the treadmill. This treadmill cost with delivery and taxes over $2000. It already needs to be repaired, thats not a good sign!Business Response

I am rejecting this response because:I paid a total of $2,084.95 for the treadmill, that included $199 for what they call white glove service (room of choice and set up). I did nothing wrong, I purchased with good faith believing that Nordictrack would stand by their product. They delivered a machine that didnt work on day 1. I should be refunded for all of the purchase price. I now have to pay someone to disassemble the machine and bring it downstairs, this will cost about $300. This is a scam Nordictrack is running. Buyer beware! Do not go by this companies name they have a terrible reputation. Im the loser all around. So I reject this response.

We purchased a Profrom **** from the manufacturer along with an extended warranty and maintenance package. The console unit was replaced under warranty in December 2021 due to an electrical issue. At this point, after less than one year of use, the metal grille over the speakers in that console have rusted. The rest of the machine is in good condition and there were no issues with the original console. It appears this issue is from sweat landing on that area, which is right in front of the belt. It is unavoidable (after all, it's a treadmill). Then, the moisture can't be removed because it is inside the metal mesh. We wipe down the entire machine after each use and never spray cleaner directly on the treadmill. The basement is dry and finished and no other equipment has this issue. We also have the maintenance contract and so the machine is serviced regularly. Also, we did not have this issue before, it has become a problem only since the console was replaced under warranty due to an electrical safety issue. I have tried to resolve this issue with Proform directly on multiple occasions. The rep said we should stop and wipe up sweat as we run, which is unreasonable since it is a treadmill and this is what it was designed for. I was also told that sweating on the treadmill would invalidate the warranty. If that is the case, it would be written in such a one-sided way that it would absolve them of all responsibility. I believe this is a manufacturer issue, due to poor design or an issue with the part itself. Therefore, we would like the part or the treadmill replaced.Business Response

Dear Better Business Bureau:
I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********. However, I would appreciate it if the business could confirm that the replacement part will be installed by a certified technician once the part has arrived. As noted in the complaint, this part was replaced once before (only the replacement had this issue) and this was necessary at that time as well.If that is the case, then I would be happy to close this matter. If not, I would not like to close this yet.
